It suggests that current neoliberal economic policies favour multi-national corporations rather than consumers and examines regulatory responses to the internationalization of consumer finance protectio

Recenzje

’With this interesting and topical collection, Therese Wilson has brought together some of the leading commentators on consumer law and financial regulation. They, in turn, have contemplated some of the principal challenges emanating from the global financial crisis. The result is an impressive work of interest to lawyers, scholars and policy-makers alike.’ Peter Cartwright, University of Nottingham, UK ’There are many books about the financial crisis, but this one is exceptional. The chapters survey the international landscape of failed past policies and promising new ones, without relying on dogma. This unique combination makes an important contribution to the on-going public debate about the future of consumer protection.’ Kathleen Engel, Suffolk Law School, USA and co-author of The Subprime Virus: Reckless Lending, Regulatory Failure and Next Steps
